USING THE AMPFIBIAN MAX
1. With nothing plugged in, connect MAX

socket and switch power supply ON.
2. Switch MAX ON (15). If unit trips, unplug
it and contact us. DO NOT USE or continue
to next step.
3. Press test button labelled “T” (14). If
switch (15) trips OFF continue to step 4.
If switch (15) DOES NOT trip when test
button pressed, unplug the MAX and
contact place of purchase. DO NOT use
MAX or continue to step 4.
4. Connect extension cord (6) to the MAX
socket ensuring that the lead is captured
by the plug lid (7) and cleat (3). Avoid any
strain on the lead.
5. Connect device directly or via extension
cord/lead (6).
6. Switch MAX to ON position (15).
TEST MAX EVERY SIX MONTHS BY
PUSHING THE BUTTON MARKED “T”; RCD
SHOULD TRIP IMMEDIATELY, IF NOT, CALL
AN ELECTRICIAN OR CONTACT
AMPFIBIAN.
Both lids (7 & 8) must be latched closed
before use. Inspect seals for damage
and/or obstruction. Do not use if lids, seals
or latches are damaged or inoperable.
IF AMPFIBIAN MAX TRIPS IN SERVICE
First rule out that the MAX is at fault by
performing the above test procedure. The
MAX will trip due to overload or an earth
leakage fault. If you are unsure of the
cause, or you believe there is an earth
leakage fault, turn off all power and
contact a licensed electrician. If you
believe there is an overload, switch off or
unplug some of the appliances and reset
the MAX.
The Ampfibian MAX is rated 240 Volts with
a maximum current rating of 10A.
Do not try to open or repair the MAX
yourself. No user-serviceable parts are
inside. If the supply cord is damaged, it
shall be replaced by the manufacturer or
its service agent in order to avoid a hazard.
Test the MAX before each use as
described in step 3. This device will only
protect against faults to earth through the
body, but not against active to neutral
faults.
This device must be connected DIRECTLY
to an outlet socket. It must not be
connected via cord extension sets.
Wet seals will freeze and will not recover
their shape until thawed. Do not open
frozen unit until thawed. Opening frozen
unit may result in damage to seals.
WARNING: ELECTRICITY CAN BE
DANGEROUS! RCDs (RESIDUAL CURRENT
DEVICES) ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR
BASIC ELECTRICAL SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS. RCDs ARE ADDITIONAL
PROTECTION AND WILL NOT PREVENT
SHOCK, BUT WILL MINIMISE THE EFFECT.
RCDs WILL TRIP FOR A FAULT BETWEEN
THE BODY TO EARTH, BUT NOT FOR
ACTIVE TO NEUTRAL FAULTS. DO NOT USE
THIS DEVICE IF IT FAILS TO OPERATE
CORRECTLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
